My Vacation With Zharr J Wolf at Cedar Point
6 years ago
Hey everyone, I had a vacation with my very good tickle loving werejackal friend Zharr J. Wolf and I'd love to tell you about it all. Unfortunately back in 2018 we failed to meet for the first time at another famous thrill park called Kings Island in Mason Ohio. So this first offical meeting was going to be extra special and important.
1. It took me around 11 hours to my mom and I to drive from Kansas City to Sandusky Ohio. Fortunately I'm very used to driving so the trip wasn't bad at all.
2. The whole hotel scene was booked to the max since it was Cedar Points final month for the season and it was the annual Halloween Haunt. Fortunately I managed to secure a room at the Wolf Inn for only 39 dollars and I got a nice room! Very Lucky!
3. Zharr drove in the morning on Sunday for 2 hours and actually got there in the line of cars going to Cedar Point ahead of me. Heh I tested him when I found out: Hey! Your ahead of me you little stink! Ha ha ha
4. Once I was dropped off and he got his car parked, before we met I actually managed to secure a cheap ticket for him from another park attendee who had one too many! Lucky me! I made sure that I got Fast Lane Plus wrist bands so we can get early access to the rides faster. Believe me, you have to!
5. As I waited by the big cedar point sign for him, Zharr was looking around for me and wanted to see if he could spot me, he got it right. I looked up and there he was, with his sunglasses, his Anubis shirt and a very happy smile. He stepped forward and pulled his glasses off, smiled and tilted his head and spoke, "Don?..."
I stared at him for a moment and he didn't think he had the right person, and then he had to ask again to be sure, "Don? Is that you Donovan?"..
I simply stood up, opened up my arms and gave a confirming smile. He wasted no time in giving me a big hug.
6. We pretty much clicked very well with each other as fast friends, not that a firm friendship wasn't already established. I asked him what did you think of me at first glance, and he said that I was handsome. Heh heh I made sure to dress well and take a shower in the morning to give a good first impression.
7. Our first big ride at Cedar Point was the inverted roller coaster, Raptor. Although he was a bit nervous on trying new and bigger coasters I made sure to inform him on all the tech and safety that goes on with the roller coasters today. There were a few times where I had to hold his hand as we rode a lot of the rides (he squeezes really tight!). His reactions were really fun and had great enthusiasm with pretty much all of the rides. Legit exciting reactions are always very special.

8. Afterwords, we went on two more moderate rides, one of those spinning frisbee pendulum rides and an impulse coaster called Wicked Twister. But the next big ride we went on was Gatekeeper. It was a huge wing coaster that had a twisting first drop and the layout traversed over the main gateway to the Cedar Point entrance. Heh heh you know once we started to turn sideways on that first twisting drop, I casually asked, "Hey Zharr.......how's it hanging.......?" His reaction was, OHH MY GOD AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH FUUUUUUUCK!!!!!! Lol

9. After that we got some lunch at some really enticing food trucks that were stationed in the park. Unfortunately the food was rather unreasonably priced and Zharr got some match is for way too much. I ended up giving him a 10 dollar for the trouble. He then gave me another hug while tearing up a bit and said "Stop being so nice, your making me cry you asshole! One of the best compliments I've ever got.
10. Then the next big roller coaster we tent on was Valraven, a giant dive coaster, a unique coaster model that hangs you 200 feet off the ground on the first drop at a 90 degree angle. Zharr really enjoyed that one especially since we were sitting next to a overacting kid on how crazy the ride was, it was a total crack up! Ha ha ha

11. The next roller coaster was called floorless coaster called Rougarou, named after the Louisiana werewolf legend. Another fun one that really "roared" as it flew by.

12. After that we came across a petting zoo called the Barnyard where they had a bunch of goats, sheep, chickens, potbelly pigs, llamas, camels and horses. All the while he was showing me a bunch of stuff on his phone as we walked from coaster to coaster. Making sure all the naughty stuff was well hidden. Ha ha!
13. Then we traveled over to a historically significant roller coaster called Magnum XL-2000. It received an ACE Coaster Landmark award for being the first roller coaster to reach 200 feet in 1989. It definitely felt its age but Zharr actually enjoyed it despite the bumpyness.

14. Finally we started on the really high octane roller coasters. The first was Millennium Force, the very first roller coaster to reach 300 feet in 2000. Since Zharr wasn't too used to heights, I definitely had to hold his hand for this one. It was a really intense ride since its speed was 93 mph and his throat was hurting a bit from all the yelling. We made sure to get plenty of water afterwards. He he

15. The next big roller coaster was not a big coaster but it was more low to the ground. But what it lacked in imposing size it exceeded in speed, intensity and pure adrenaline, it's known as Maverick. It also has some of the best over the shoulder restraints on any roller coaster. This was definitely a favorite for both of us. The only irritation was that I had to take off my glasses for the ride, despite rides tons of rides and coasters and never having them loosen once. Seriously I've been on tons of rides and my glasses never fell off.

16. The final roller coaster on our vacation was a brand new roller coaster called Steel Vengence by Rocky Mountain Construction aka RMC a highly acclaimed roller coaster manufacturer that got recognition for their silky smooth ride experiences, top quality restraints and coaster trains, elaborate tracking and impressive coaster layouts. This one scared Zharr the most not only was it very tall but it's a roller coaster with inversions and just labours with no shoulder restraints! I made sure to inform him that it was perfectly safe and that I've rode many rides by RMC and the lapbar technology was very efficient. It was one hell of a crazy experience and despite being very winded, he loved it! I'm glad he went on all these rides with me, I knew he love adrenaline and it was beyond worth meeting him in this thrill park. It is a great place for thrill junkies.

17. By that time I was unfortunately time to go, due to the popularity of the park sometimes the fast lane lines can be long. But we had a Damn good time! Before we left Zharr showed me his really awesome duel lightsaber skills in the parking lot then we got some taco bell for dinner (yeah classy us heh heh) then we headed over to meet my mom who got along great with Zharr, he wasn't lying when he said that he was a likable charmer.
18. And then came the worst part, the post vacation blues. Both Zharr and I hugged multiple times and for very long periods, but I told him not to be sad and I used a quote from Auntie Mame, "Live Live Live, Life is a banquet, and most poor sons of bitches are starving to death." I then I told him I loved him dearly and we parted. (Sigh)
I do want to see him again, and I'm willing to try next year. Perhaps Kennywood.

We did talk about a lot of tickle fun. Like how Zharrs tribe uses a lot of animals to tickle their prisoners.
I did say i could imagine he would be an amazing guy and seems that i was bang on. My god you guys went on a lot of roller coasters, unfortuantly for me i am unable to as it upsets my medical condition with all the up and down stuff. :(
But i am glad to hear you had a great time.
The worst bit is always when you leave each other but i can tell with 100% certainty, it will not be the last time. :)
Oh absolutely it won't be the last.
I hope you meet again soon and hang out more often :)
And .. Don't forget to hop on the tickle coaster next time
I actually forgot to mention that along the way to Ohio there was a disturbing amount of roadkill on the main highways! it was seriously unusual to see.
Well a tickle themed ride would be tricky but manageable.
